I deleted an ambiguous sentence about how the "slaves' treatment increased after the rebellion." I assume a language barrier was the cause of the unclearness. Whoever posted it, please clarify and resubmit.

I erased a quote saying that the revolt eventually 'failed and replaced it with 'subsided'.. If the revolt lasted for over 14 years and they even built their own capital then obviously it was n't a failed revolt, choose your words more carefully, who ever wrote this.Taharqa 19:03, 26 March 2007 (UTC))

[edit] Peak propinquity

"Moktara, the Elect City, which at its peak was within 70 miles of Baghdad" Eh? Is this to suggest the distance often changed, between the two capitals? Jim.henderson 04:20, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
